I woke to the sirens of the cityThey were calling me to hold my head up highBut the truth was in the dust that hangs like curtainsFrom the beggars to the skyThe ads and billboards rained in every languageThe message every politician knowsWhen we're fed that we are nothing we'll believe itAnd then do what we are toldThe spark of the divineI see it in your eyesIt's there behind the lies that tie you downOn the wings of the morningHope is risingIn the darkest nightYour love and light prevailAsk any good detective, he will tell youIt's the eyes that always give the truth awayAnd in yours I see the fear that's bound and gagged youWith no hope for escapeIt's true that we are fallen as an angelBut you and me, we're also holy as a prayerMade in the image of a giver and a loverWho left His throne to come down hereThe spark of the divineI see it in your eyesIt's there behind the lies that tie you downOn the wings of the morningHope is risingIn the darkest nightYour love and light prevailWe will rise, rise, on the wings of the morningThough we hide, hide, in the shadows of nightThere is hope, hope, in the hands that have made usAnd are holding us tight...Hope is rising... On the wings of the morningHope is rising... In the shadows of the nightHope is rising... From the hands that have made usAnd are holding us tight...
